A textile worker from Gujarat바카라s Surat city was arrested on Wednesday for allegedly threatening to blow up Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar, said a police official.
Bihar native Ankit Mishra, who is in his late 20s, was nabbed from Laskana area of the city and handed over to Bihar police for further investigation, said Lalit Vagadiya, an inspector from the Surat crime branch.
On March 20, a person had called a Patna-based news channel's office and claimed that he would blow up CM Nitish Kumar in the next 36 hours. A formal complaint in this regard was lodged at Sachivalaya police station in Bihar바카라s capital Patna, said Vagadiya.
바카라Technical surveillance by Bihar police revealed that the call was made from Surat, following which Bihar police sought the help of Surat police to nab the culprit. We finally managed to nab the caller, identified as Ankit Mishra. He has been handed over to Patna police,바카라 said the official.
Primary investigations by Surat police revealed that Mishra is a native of Bihar and has been working as a labourer in a powerloom factory in the city바카라s Laskana area for the past six years, said Vagadiya, adding that Bihar police will investigate to find out why he made the threat call.
On Tuesday, security was beefed up at Union minister Nitin Gadkari바카라s home and office in Maharashtra바카라s Nagpur city after a man made three calls threatening to harm the senior BJP leader if Rs 10 crore was not paid to him, an official had said.
